Description

Import

Select data to be imported:

  • Browse for the file to be imported. A standard Open dialog will be displayed. Multiple files may be selected by using the CTRL and SHIFT keys.
  • The flag selected in the Flag for imported fields dropdown will be used to flag fields containing data brought in by the importer.
  • Check User Units to import values as being in the current display units. (If this option is unchecked, the importer will assume values are metric.)
Generate IDs From

Set option for generating CCTV Survey IDs:

  • StartNodeRef, Direction, Date and Time: CCTV Survey IDs are generated from the Start Node, Direction, Date and Time data.
  • StartNodeRef, Direction and an index if needed for uniqueness: CCTV Survey IDs are generated from the Node ref at the upstream end of the survey and the Direction field. An index is appended to duplicate IDs to preserve uniqueness.

Duplicate IDs

Set an option for importing CCTV Surveys with duplicate IDs.

Survey IDs are generated from US node ID, DS node ID, Direction and an Index.

  • Do not import duplicate survey: surveys with duplicate IDs will not be imported. These surveys will be reported in the import log.
  • Rename imported survey (increment index): surveys with duplicate IDs will be imported as new surveys by incrementing the index part of the ID.

This section will be disabled when using the StartNodeRef, Direction and an index if needed for uniqueness option; surveys with duplicate IDs will be imported with a different suffix. Existing surveys will not be changed.
